REBECCA FRIEDRICHS (GUEST): We should look to the past. So, let's just take the free lunch program that we have in our schools. It started out being pushed by the unions and their friends for poor children. Well, 28 years ago, I had two students in my class on free lunch. Today almost every single child is on free breakfast and free lunch. So what the unions are trying to do, they've pushing something called community schools. And in these community schools, we're giving children free health care, we're are giving them free food, free emotional support, and by the way free political indoctrination for their parents. And so, if these unions and their friends, their politicians, get their way, they would like our schools to be open 24/7. They want to replace the family and families raising their children with our own virtues, they want to replace that with the state. With union-controlled government-run schools. That's dangerous. That's communism when you think about it.
yeah this is more a paternalistic moral concern that handouts will make them weak or some shit. It's very dumb and frankly horrible and nasty but I don't think she wants kids to starve I think she is very childish and genuinely believes that without these programs their parents would start a small business and achieve the American dream because conservatives don't understand systemic problems
it's like how Rishi Sunak genuinely seems to believe that if everyone in the UK does well in their A level maths the entire country can get jobs in finance and it will all be ok
I think it's darker than that. They don't think everybody can start a small business and be successful but they think that since everybody has the possibility to do so, then it must be people's own fault if they don't do.
I think it's a little column A a little column B
